Special Object - Recovery Point

menu : entities / create / recovery point
panel : database / special objects / recovery point ()



Recovery point is used to set the respawn locations of players in MP maps. It is a place where a player is inserted, either in the beginning of the game, or after a certain amount of time has elapsed. The maximum number of Recovery Points of a single mode (type) is 64. US ATG Pilot and US Coop modes are exceptions - the Pilot can be inserted into the map only at one location, while US Coop can use maximum of 6 Recovery Points.

The icon color depends on the game mode for which the recovery point is set.
